The Cocoa Culture Of Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie

The Cocoa Culture Of Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie
Enter Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie through a cacao garden, take some photos from the ‘gram, and next, eat your way through every room.

To make sense of what Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie really is is to think about what and how you like eating chocolate itself. If you’re the grab and go type of guy, the establishment’s location is pretty central; it’s located at Dempsey. If you’re somewhat of a snob, the chocolate here is made of just nibs, butter, and unrefined cane sugar for maximum taste exposure.

If you’re crazy about chocolate, then you’d be excited to know there’s a literal factory in store where the chocolate is made fresh daily.

While Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie’s mission to creating cocoa products involves no waste (the husk is cold brewed and turned into tea) with a focus on sustainably-sourced cacao, you can actually witness its store staff mixing the good stuff at The Chocolate Room and turning them into chocolate bonbons and pastries.

The establishment also boasts Singapore’s first build-your-own-chocolate station where you start with a base of  72% dark chocolate or 50% oat milk and next, having 16 ingredients topping ranging from cornflakes to marshmallows.

While the cafe staples are available at Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie — a Signature Chocolate Dome, Warm Spiced Christmas Tart, and Hot Chocolate — ask a friendly waiter for something the brand calls the Bean-To-Bar Journey Tasting Set; a five piece set where you can start the start of the bean all the way to its end.

And if you miraculously have stomach space at the end of your trip, you can purchase chocolate buttons or chocolate covered fruits at The Dispensary.
